Paulinho has rubbished speculation he could be ready to quit Tottenham for a move across London to Chelsea this summer.

The Brazilian midfielder has been linked with a move to the Blues after just a year at White Hart Lane.

But after a mixed season for Spurs, in which he scored eight goals in 37 appearances but saw his side fail to secure Champions League football, Paulinho denies he has any regrets over joining Tottenham.

‘Absolutely not. I know how to handle my career and it’ll take more than just one bad moment before I reconsider my options,’ he told FourFourTwo.

‘We have all got responsibilities at Tottenham and we are ready to go through this.’

Meanwhile, defender Jan Vertonghen is said to be waiting to learn the identity of Tottenham’s new boss before making a final decision over his future, while Andros Townsend has been linked with both Everton and Newcastle.
